Dang, I was just watching an old video of yours and noticed how (with respect) big you were and how fit you've gotten in the last year or so. Dude, you've made some crazy progress!
I’m loving your videos! But, brother, you and me are from different planets! 😜 I wish I had your budget, though! My key management is a split ring and I made a leather fob. Snaps for belt hanging. Car keys are separate. No key ring blades. My pen is a chubby Cuban I turned on a lathe. Flashlight is a Fenix - 5 white modes. 10-1500 lumens, plus red and green. Too big to wear. Wallet. Old leather job that looks like a brick. Going to make another. Kinda small biker. Wood watches cost me $50/ea. Condor Wendigo for my knife. (Ordered.) replacing my krakatoa. I think the big distinction between you and me is my backpack(s). I have many. My edc is in my bag (sometimes my pockets) as such I lean to bigger and heavier items. No multi tools. Multiple tools. My work pack has laptops, cables, adapters, disks and drives. My play bag has the stuff we both like! It also has a cz-75. I usually don’t wear that at work. I liked your bit about the finer points of flashlights. I agree but not fully. I mean, you have a much deeper understanding of flashlights. I have 7 options and use 3. I use 2 90% of the time. There are watch aficionados who would hate my wooden ones. I like cheap but good stuff. Like condor knives. Wood Forest watches. I also like to make stuff. It’s not great. But it means a lot to me. My whole kit is probably well under $500. I’ll have to price it out. Thanks again for the great videos! Cheers!
Just got the Damascus TI big idea designs mini click.. $775.. lmk if you want to review mine, I have #19 and expect delivery on the 26th and I can ship it out for you to review.
Pardon me, for being crass, but how can people afford to carry such expensive gear around? I have trouble keeping cheap gear, with out people trying to make it theirs. I once had a nice but inexpensive pen, that I loaned to a customer's employee, and the guy put it in his pocket and walked off with it, before I realized he was gone. That particular pen was a limited edition, that is no longer for sale anymore and I have yet to find another one.
Does anyone carry a bandana in their back pocket for their EDC?. I use one everyday to wipe and clean . I don't leave home without it. Takes up ZERO space and very useful .
Honestly, the little o-ring on the key holder says "bad design" to me. If you have to add an o-ring to keep things from falling off, then the clip is ineffectual in and of itself. Just my opinion. It would be much cleaner without it. But then of course, things could fall off.
Hey Taylor, I bought a Tough Clip because of your recommendation and have had it since December 2021. Can’t thank you enough for advertising that product. Jamie did an amazing job with the simplistic design. Great quality and very durable. It replaced every other dangler or carabiner that I’ve used in the past. I don’t go anywhere without it.
The lights are neato, but I don’t think an Emisar D4v2, FWAA, or SP10 Pro can be beaten. Anduril is the best software I’ve used and the more I’ve used it, the less I’ve been interested in other lights. Only other light that gets carried is a RovyVon for my keychain.
I love those lights too. The only downside (for the tail switch one anyway) is the e-switch. For real though, if the d4v2 got an actual good deep carry clip, it’d be beast.
Anduril is awesome and powerful, but for daily use, I just prefer having something simple and straightforward. I really enjoy the FW3T I have, but end up grabbing these instead.
Taylor to viewers: "I don't really want to show you everything I have because you either can't get it or can't afford it. And that's the damn truth." :)))
Personally I like your contant on high end flashlights. I carry a little brass Maratac aaa twist top light about 90% of the time, I don't feel the need for more, but I find those high end options interesting to know about. It's like high end watches, not something I'm looking for but seeing what's out there is cool. Really enjoy the channel.
The copper Maratac aaa is my favorite keychain light. With the patina it looks like an antique ship instrument. I also like the Eagtac d3a in titanium, a compact clicky aa. It has an excellent UI and a better clip than the Maratac (I clip it to my shirt for hands-free work). I’ve had reliability issues with a number of lights recently, but these two have never let me down. I also agree, I’d love to hear more about the high end stuff!
have you ever showed us how you carry all this stuff? I think it would make a great video. Where do you keep all of it? Pouch? Is it comfortable? is everything just in one pocket?
I’m wondering the same. An example of how the key clip sits when hooked on a pant loop would be helpful for me. I’m considering it for my work keys but not sure how many a guy can fit on one as I have several and want them to reach my pocket from plant loop so they’re not making noise while walking.
Looking for a good edc power bank that isn’t too large and is less than $50. Anyone have suggestions? Thanks in advance for helping out a newbie edc guy
No love for slip joints? I always have a slipjoint as my secondary knife they are great in public for cutting up dinner when the waiter brings a butter knife or just peeling some fruit or veg for the kids
Hello sir ❤ I am from India I love slim wallet to❤. It's 2024 and I am currently using it (my wallet business car holder wallet) and I am using it as my daily wallet. I carry 1 I'd card, 1 metro card, 1 debit card and few cash ❤.
I neeeeeeed it. Lol that wallet is so nice. I tried to go to the cite and it says I need a password. Will it just be open next month or do we need to aquire the password?
Dude probably sleeps with a knife. Can tell how passionate he is on knives lol Still don’t know how you can afford all that merch. Unless your getting free for vids. Ridiculous collection. Over kill much. Waiting for his vid on guns 2hrs long 😂
260€ for pen . I don't get that i hawe super good Parker pen for 50€ almost 15+ares and its super good I realy don't know wat can bee beter. Its cute but stupid expensive
3:59 yes! that is in fact situational irony! you would expect what you carry the most to be there with you, yet your expectations are subverted, therefore irony is in place.
I don’t understand why you would be doing food prep with a pocket knife? You’ve got like $5k worth of knives on the table there and a descent chefs knife and paring knife would only set you back like $100 each?
I think there is a dodgy commenter in here with a bogus "you win" scam going on. Beware, they say they're from Best Damn EDC and you've won some kit but it seems sketchy. His name is even Text me, that's a giveaway sign he is dodgy
Every fool has his own joy, as they say. each of us spends money on what we want to have. It would be nice if you made a video dedicated to flashlights in several price categories
I dont even have a flashlight but I want one. Love the look of the okluma DC0. I'm looking to buy a slim pocket flashlight preferably rechargeable but everyone I like is sold out and I want to spend around the $100 range.
I think my flashlight philosophy is completely different. It’s the flashlight I wanted cost $300 I’d still buy it. However the one I’ve been edc-ing for 12 years runs about $25 now. When it first came out it was about 85$ it is a on off AAA 25 lumin. Flashlight. The function I like about it is the lens. Pulled back it is extremely even clear light for close to work. And it does OK as a spotlight too when the lens is adjusted. It has a hat clip. I use at least one to two hours every single day that I am working. It might be my most indispensable tool
Get the screwpop knife and put it with your keys. I can’t believe that’s not everywhere. If I get stopped with it at an airport, and I don’t, I tell them to throw away the disposable part and just keep the screwpop. Pens? Get a bic. Fire? Get a bic. Shaving? You guessed it. Nothing like the old times when people had one thing of each for decades. If you have to theorize about all these things, develop a new skill. Much better use of time
I like my low grad carabiner for key's. Crazy fl's.. near 2k in fl's LOL I heard strobe flashlight is one of the best defense items next to being a black belt.
Hey Taylor, I have been on board the PowerPint train sense your first video with it during the store edc challenge videos. That being said, have you had issues with it coming open in the pocket? It seems to be my only issue I have with it. If you have, have you found any way to combat it?
All of this shit is really cool. But do people really carry this much stuff everyday! I guess it all depends but man to say you carry this shit all the time, wow.
Never change Taylor. We love your variety in carry. Everyone has stables if they really love gear and a bit of pocket jewelry. Hopefully I will have a collection close to your amazing array of gear.
Glad I watched this, if nothing else for the sog multi tool. Side note though the flash lights you carry, they should put a double sided clip on them. So they could clip to your hat as well. Especially for the cost.
Its a phenomenal multitool and nothing in it's size comes close to it. I love it just about as much as my Leatherman Free P2 and Wave+. It's so compact, but has every tool i basically ever need. I just wish it had magnets to keep it closed like the P2 does, but that's the only gripe i have about it. When it's on my Grip6 belts, it can come "apart" and open. Not the tools though, just the frame/handles. For the price and size, i dare you to find something better 😉👍
Sofirn SP10 pro is pretty damn awesome. Anduril 2 need I say more. 14500 and AA both work in the light and the battery voltage test works for both. $23
I know this is an older video but just wanted to drop by and say this video made me FINALLY try Nylon on one of my Hinderer's. Chose to try it on the NF Eklipse and I absolutely love it now that it's broken in. Makes me want a NF 3.5!
Great video, man. I look forward to your video more recently. Since your new studio and more “earthy” vibe your videos give off, I’m really digging it. More than in the past. Well done. Carry on!
Cowabunga mate.! Great summer carry TM. It's winter over here with similar carry but much low end but functional. Cheers matey. Greetings from Australia.
I’d like to see EDCs that include automatic knives. If you can carry automatic, I don’t understand passing up the opportunity. I think OTF knives are the safest knives possible because you never have to touch the blade. I have carried a BM Pagan for many years. If you don’t think automatic knives are the coolest you are lying to yourself.
im with ya on the flashlights bro! I feel that in the majority of my struggles in life, a little bit of light, goes a LONG way...same can be said for a knife, but i've never met anyone scared of a pocket light! lmao
Ive always carried a "cheap" knife and an "expensive" knife. It's been interesting to see how quickly, easily and drastically my definition of those two words has changed. Now, I'm almost always also carrying a knife to test a specific steel, so I'm up to 3 as well. Today specifically, it's a full Ti xm24, a BM Anthem and a ts305-m390.
Hey Taylor, just so you are informed, it is possible to find out the biting of a lock just by looking at the key so someone can make an exact copy of a key seen on video. Be careful. Carry on.
....SOG Powerpint is my MT..... I carry a WERA bit set for it in my EDC bag. I also carry the SAK Climber (+ scales) with the Key¦Smart pocket clip with SAK lanyard. (Knifeless REBAR for bigger and main MT)
Great collection. I LOVE flashlights and probably use that more than my knife daily. I can absolutely appreciate the expensive lights. I've been itchn for an okluma but just cant pull the trigger. Great content as always dude. ✌️
@@Sleeper250 mostly finding my kids toys/walking the dog/finding stuff under car seats/checking stuff in the basement/taking my kids temp at night when i dont want to turn thr light on/my wife steals it....countless ways. ✌️
I think that many of us (knife, EDC guys) will spend 80 to 100 bucks on a nice flashlight, but 450 bucks is a bit of a different story. It may be just me but a $100 flashlight feels equal in range to a $200 knife. I feel like a $450 flashlight is equal to the $800 knife to most of us EDC enthusiasts. Maybe only because you can get almost every single Bell and whistle on a flashlight for a hundred bucks. There are plenty of enthusiast flashlights that you could talk about just like knives. You don't have to avoid talking about them, just include more of the range of what's available. No offense but not talking about flashlights because you want to only talk about the $400 ones is a bit of a cop out, 😁. Love the channel, and thanks for all the work that you put into bringing us quality content so regularly
That wallet. First heard of it while watching your channel. It was love at first sight. Missed the drops a few times but finally managed to land one which hopefully is in the mail on the way! Keep up the great reviews!
The one EDC watch everyone sleeps on or knows nothing about is the Casio Oceanus S100 series. Titanium case and band, sapphire crystal, and the same Casio Tough Movement in most of their dialed-out G-Shock watches but in something that does *not* look like a G-Shock. You could wear this thing to a wedding and then go to the range and dump a few thousand rounds downrange and it won't affect it one bit. Not to mention it sync up with the atomic clock wireless every night as well as can easily jump between time zones in seconds, far faster than any other watch on the market. Lume is incredible on it. And it's solar so no worrying about batteries as well as 100m w/r. And I guarantee it's one of the lightest watches on the market due to it's all-titanium build. And right now it's going for anywhere between $350-$500 depending on where you get it. Backup analog watch is a Manchester Watch Works "Rattler" automatic watch. Titanium case, sapphire crystal, superluminova lume that charges easily and lasts all night, hand-wind or auto, screw-down crown with 100m w/r and uses the venerable NH35 movement with shock resistance. I've hand-calibrated mine to keep within a few seconds of atomic time. Too bad the company doesn't exist anymore and the watch is no longer made, but that NH35 movement means it's easily serviced or repaired at pretty much any watch servicing business in my area.

Would love to see more flashlight content. I got a bunch of customs and would love to get your perspective on some

The rustic heirloom wallet is exactly what I have been looking for. I’m a chain wallet guy and this fits the bill. I wish it was in stock.
I use a Victorinox belt hanger for my keys, and it's only $13.00
Am i the only one who thinks that all knives are good but they all look basic. There are no siluates that you will recognize among hundreds.
Dude I lost your channel for a while, it's good to see you lost some weight, you look good man, respectfully.
When’s the wallet release Taylor? And any update on a patina update? Thinking a about getting one
260 dollars for a fucking pen! Yeah....I'm out..
Hey Taylor,

Plus, I’m a fan of the magnetic tail caps offered in the D4v2 and SP10 Pro
I have the FW21 Pro. I wished they made a Ti version. They only made a Cu one aside from the standard Alu..

@bestdamnedc any patina update bro?

Hello sir ❤ I am from India I love slim wallet to❤.
It's 2024 and I am currently using it (my wallet business car holder wallet) and I am using it as my daily wallet. I carry 1 I'd card, 1 metro card, 1 debit card and few cash ❤.
I really like the power pint
I neeeeeeed it. Lol that wallet is so nice. I tried to go to the cite and it says I need a password. Will it just be open next month or do we need to aquire the password?
SOG PowerPint and a small prybar/flat driver is a good combo.. 👍👍👍
Hey there. Looking to put together an EDC gift package. What's makes those pens worth that much (or really more than $10-$20)? Thanks
Dude probably sleeps with a knife. Can tell how passionate he is on knives lol Still don’t know how you can afford all that merch. Unless your getting free for vids. Ridiculous collection. Over kill much. Waiting for his vid on guns 2hrs long 😂
I'm an Indonesian🇮🇩🇮🇩who really likes the videos you make and I'm happy to see you
260€ for pen . I don't get that i hawe super good Parker pen for 50€ almost 15+ares and its super good I realy don't know wat can bee beter. Its cute but stupid expensive
dude, i care …. a lot ….. i’ve tried an expensive flashlight … it was awesome …. currently carrying a streamlight because my funds demand it 😂😂
3:59 yes! that is in fact situational irony! you would expect what you carry the most to be there with you, yet your expectations are subverted, therefore irony is in place.
I don’t understand why you would be doing food prep with a pocket knife? You’ve got like $5k worth of knives on the table there and a descent chefs knife and paring knife would only set you back like $100 each?
I think there is a dodgy commenter in here with a bogus "you win" scam going on. Beware, they say they're from Best Damn EDC and you've won some kit but it seems sketchy.

Get the screwpop knife and put it with your keys. I can’t believe that’s not everywhere. If I get stopped with it at an airport, and I don’t, I tell them to throw away the disposable part and just keep the screwpop. Pens? Get a bic. Fire? Get a bic. Shaving? You guessed it. Nothing like the old times when people had one thing of each for decades. If you have to theorize about all these things, develop a new skill. Much better use of time
I like my low grad carabiner for key's. Crazy fl's.. near 2k in fl's LOL I heard strobe flashlight is one of the best defense items next to being a black belt.
Taylor, digging up an older video but what flashlight/headlamp setup do you roll when hiking or camping?
Found your Facebook group then RUclips recommended you hahaha. Didn’t realize the Facebook group was based on the RUclips channel . Great content
It’s been a while since i watch this channel, you have lost a lot of weight! You look great! Congratulations!
Hey Taylor, I have been on board the PowerPint train sense your first video with it during the store edc challenge videos. That being said, have you had issues with it coming open in the pocket? It seems to be my only issue I have with it. If you have, have you found any way to combat it?
to much expensive stuff for edc lol i have one kershaw 16700 blk fo over 12 years :D and this is the way:)
love your videos
Monte Blac could easily run a couple thousands and more. No joke very serious 10,000 and more sometimes.
All of this shit is really cool. But do people really carry this much stuff everyday! I guess it all depends but man to say you carry this shit all the time, wow.
Never change Taylor. We love your variety in carry. Everyone has stables if they really love gear and a bit of pocket jewelry. Hopefully I will have a collection close to your amazing array of gear.
COOL STUFF 😎!
I already have the tough clip - what size oring could I put to duplicate this?
Very good;)
Glad I watched this, if nothing else for the sog multi tool.
Side note though the flash lights you carry, they should put a double sided clip on them. So they could clip to your hat as well. Especially for the cost.
The special edition wallet just dropped again. Had to pull the trigger I love Pueblo leather!
The tpt bead where did you get it? Very very nice! You have a good taste sir. Cheers!
Not tired of hearing about the sog powerpint. I want to get one at some point.
Its a phenomenal multitool and nothing in it's size comes close to it. I love it just about as much as my Leatherman Free P2 and Wave+. It's so compact, but has every tool i basically ever need. I just wish it had magnets to keep it closed like the P2 does, but that's the only gripe i have about it. When it's on my Grip6 belts, it can come "apart" and open. Not the tools though, just the frame/handles.
For the price and size, i dare you to find something better 😉👍
#muhshorts
Soy re trolo
Know of any options similar to the key smart mini in real leather? Love the design but plastic isn’t my jam 🤣
You can make one with a Chicago screw and a scrap of leather
i have the tough clip but how the hell do you get the o-ring on there like that?
Man, i love your videos. The room set up, the quality, the subjects, and of course You ;) .
Love from Saudi
Sofirn SP10 pro is pretty damn awesome. Anduril 2 need I say more. 14500 and AA both work in the light and the battery voltage test works for both. $23
Imagine forgetting that $200 pen at a bank counter or supermarket 😬
I know this is an older video but just wanted to drop by and say this video made me FINALLY try Nylon on one of my Hinderer's. Chose to try it on the NF Eklipse and I absolutely love it now that it's broken in. Makes me want a NF 3.5!
Can you do an updated budget carry video under $100 or under $200?
What do you recommend for a flipper? No ZT or Hinderer please.
Did he make bronze oklumas? I need to find one
Great video, man. I look forward to your video more recently. Since your new studio and more “earthy” vibe your videos give off, I’m really digging it. More than in the past. Well done. Carry on!
Hi, what are the measurements of the rustic heirloom wallet?
Your looking good on your weight loss journey!
I don't think I've come across anyone nerdpacking an edc.
Do you carry a Pew pew on the daily? Thanks love your channel!
Those big idea design dual click pens are so damn nice. I have the full size zirconium.
You gotta do a Hard Use/ Top 10 Heavy Duty MT video next! Keep doing awesome work man!
Cowabunga mate.! Great summer carry TM. It's winter over here with similar carry but much low end but functional. Cheers matey. Greetings from Australia.
Seriously? Is this really genuine.!?
Where do you carry a multi tool if your pickets are full
Stopped watching at 260$ pen. Good day sir.
😮 I just thought of a video idea for you… mtb edc?
I’d like to see EDCs that include automatic knives. If you can carry automatic, I don’t understand passing up the opportunity. I think OTF knives are the safest knives possible because you never have to touch the blade. I have carried a BM Pagan for many years. If you don’t think automatic knives are the coolest you are lying to yourself.
You don't need to care when you get them all for free.
Dude drops 5000 on EDC kit…. Yea…
Could you make that wallet with a back access card holder
im with ya on the flashlights bro! I feel that in the majority of my struggles in life, a little bit of light, goes a LONG way...same can be said for a knife, but i've never met anyone scared of a pocket light! lmao
You haven’t seen the 2000 lumen light that I carry. It will light you up @ 300 yards.
400 dollars is crazy for a flashlight
I carry 3 knives, so don't doubt your reasons why you carry two!
Ive always carried a "cheap" knife and an "expensive" knife. It's been interesting to see how quickly, easily and drastically my definition of those two words has changed.
Now, I'm almost always also carrying a knife to test a specific steel, so I'm up to 3 as well.
Today specifically, it's a full Ti xm24, a BM Anthem and a ts305-m390.
Hey Taylor, just so you are informed, it is possible to find out the biting of a lock just by looking at the key so someone can make an exact copy of a key seen on video. Be careful. Carry on.
I don’t think I’d work in the yard with a $500 knife❗️
Lol
That’s what it’s built for
Given all the Shot Show pocket check Rolex watches you uncovered, it’s kinda silly for the community to carp about nice flashlights, I think.
....SOG Powerpint is my MT..... I carry a WERA bit set for it in my EDC bag. I also carry the SAK Climber (+ scales) with the Key¦Smart pocket clip with SAK lanyard. (Knifeless REBAR for bigger and main MT)
Great collection. I LOVE flashlights and probably use that more than my knife daily. I can absolutely appreciate the expensive lights. I've been itchn for an okluma but just cant pull the trigger. Great content as always dude. ✌️
@@Sleeper250 mostly finding my kids toys/walking the dog/finding stuff under car seats/checking stuff in the basement/taking my kids temp at night when i dont want to turn thr light on/my wife steals it....countless ways. ✌️
Keysmart mini is sold out 😢
I think that many of us (knife, EDC guys) will spend 80 to 100 bucks on a nice flashlight, but 450 bucks is a bit of a different story. It may be just me but a $100 flashlight feels equal in range to a $200 knife. I feel like a $450 flashlight is equal to the $800 knife to most of us EDC enthusiasts. Maybe only because you can get almost every single Bell and whistle on a flashlight for a hundred bucks. There are plenty of enthusiast flashlights that you could talk about just like knives. You don't have to avoid talking about them, just include more of the range of what's available. No offense but not talking about flashlights because you want to only talk about the $400 ones is a bit of a cop out, 😁.
Love the channel, and thanks for all the work that you put into bringing us quality content so regularly
That wallet. First heard of it while watching your channel. It was love at first sight. Missed the drops a few times but finally managed to land one which hopefully is in the mail on the way! Keep up the great reviews!
$200 pen?? Dude get real!
“Yer this my homies pry bar thing idk it’s pre lame used it like ONCE just there to support the boy but anyway this glow thing pretty neat…” 😂
The one EDC watch everyone sleeps on or knows nothing about is the Casio Oceanus S100 series.
Titanium case and band, sapphire crystal, and the same Casio Tough Movement in most of their dialed-out G-Shock watches but in something that does *not* look like a G-Shock. You could wear this thing to a wedding and then go to the range and dump a few thousand rounds downrange and it won't affect it one bit. Not to mention it sync up with the atomic clock wireless every night as well as can easily jump between time zones in seconds, far faster than any other watch on the market. Lume is incredible on it. And it's solar so no worrying about batteries as well as 100m w/r.
And I guarantee it's one of the lightest watches on the market due to it's all-titanium build. And right now it's going for anywhere between $350-$500 depending on where you get it.
Backup analog watch is a Manchester Watch Works "Rattler" automatic watch. Titanium case, sapphire crystal, superluminova lume that charges easily and lasts all night, hand-wind or auto, screw-down crown with 100m w/r and uses the venerable NH35 movement with shock resistance. I've hand-calibrated mine to keep within a few seconds of atomic time. Too bad the company doesn't exist anymore and the watch is no longer made, but that NH35 movement means it's easily serviced or repaired at pretty much any watch servicing business in my area.
God damn I want that wallet
